ABOUT SERET UK 2020

SERET UK 2020 runs from May 21 – 30 and will be one of the first film festivals to be screened entirely online. Due to COVID-19 social distancing restrictions the excellent films that we have selected will be available on home screens, rather than in cinemas.

The 2020 Festival line-up can be accessed through this website and film lovers can enjoy everything the Festival has to offer, including Q&A with the directors and actors.

Ticket passes are available to purchase now, including the Whole Festival Pass at £49.99, to see all films, or there are different levels of passes from a single ticket to access to ten films of your choice. Buy your passes here.

This year’s SERET UK 2020 includes the cream of the new productions from talented Israeli film and TV makers. There are award-winning debuts from first-time feature film makers, and big movies from some of Israel’s most internationally respected masters.

There is an eclectic mix of features and documentaries mirroring the diversity of modern Israel. The Festival programme delves into Israeli political milestones and fractures; examines the effects of living and loving in a time of war; shares universal fears about childlessness and meeting new challenges as our lives change.

There are legal and political dramas, high octane thrillers, high anxiety black comedies and moving tragedies. There are powerful romances and extraordinary stories of stolen identity and self-realisation.

We are looking forward to sharing them with you.

OUR MISSION STATEMENTSERET INTERNATIONAL is an independent, non-political, non-religious all-inclusive charity, dedicated to engaging audiences with the richness and diversity of Israeli life and culture through the mediums of film & TV.

Through our international annual festivals, we aspire to showcase new and innovative Israeli cinema, unveiling touching and engaging stories from the rich tapestry of Israel’s society and reality. The main objective is to expose the audiences to Israel’s thriving film culture. In doing so, the founders foster social awareness of cultural diversity thus creating a platform for discussion and cooperation.

Through an honest and open representation of creators and characters from all walks of Israeli life, we hope to bring deeper understanding and insight of this unique country to audiences around the world and build new bridges.

We further seek to inspire artistic collaborations between creative forces from Israel and the different cultural regions we’re active in and encourage partnerships that unleash creativity and expand artists’ abilities to further experiment and take chances, as well as learn from and teach others.
